Time lapse forming .416 GNR via .348 Win. case filled to the neck with AA#7 and a tuft of wadding to keep from spilling. A most horrendous blank blast and flash! Note streaks of burning granules moving away. The only safe place is directly behind the gun.

Another shooting a .75 cal. musket at HHC. I think about a 150 gr. charge behind the 550 gr. ball.

Several years ago, Benj out hunting at the pond. Good stance. I guess sis was there too as the hunt looked successful.

I bought this old digital camera for cheap. Perfect condition. Had to buy a clock memory battery ($7) and then get an SD card for data. Bought a 32GB card half price a at $16. Wouldn't work.

SD stands for "S"ecure "D"ata.

The old "SD" cards are on the FAT12 format and not compatible with the newer SD-HC or SD-XC which are on a compressed "FAT32" format. They are not compatible but any old SD will work in a later SD-HC or XC machine, just not the other way around. The largest capacity old plain SD card I find is about 2GB.

Also the little number by the SD marking on the card in a circle 4,6,10 etc. is nomenclature as to how much data the card can upload at one time, or it's speed. How fast it can record. Using an older slower card in a later faster processor might hamstring your footage or photos.

I was researching this in relation to hunting photos and shooting sports just thought you'd find it useful.

I bought a Vivitar card reader. It has 5 or 6 slots in

it for every type card there is. You plug your SD card into it, plug it into the USB port in your computer and it downloads the pics. No problem at all.

Yep. If you have been a camera guy for a while you need one

he is deathly allergic to any peanuts or tree nuts, I mean bad! On a scale of 1-5 he's said to be a 4, just under as bad as it can be. That's one reason he likely can't ever go to HHC with me. It's so dangerous for him to go any place, Epi-pen and all.

We keep him in t-shirts and stuff that says No-nuts etc. I need to get him some medical tags now he's older. Benjamin is 12 now.

Poor guy. Seems like whenever I read the label on the back of a food product, there is a warning that it was made with equipment that also processed nuts. Really limits your food options.

Thanks for bringing back a good memory

When I was a kid my Dad and I spent lots of time hiking around on a large nearby farm. In the winter we'd make hot chocolate and pancakes. In the summer I used to shoot frogs with my BB gun. I remember leaning out over the creek with my Dad holding my belt so I could shoot 'em on the undercut bank.
